Stylesight AW14 Runway Trends

Posted on 17 June 2013

Here is our take on the top four trends for Autumn/Winter 2014.

1. NEO NOIR

Mysterious and sensual, this trend is inspired by the Film Noir period and is the epitome of the dark and moody interpretations of 40’s and 50’s glamour. Femme Fatales, pencil skirts, and extravagant fur accessories, this trend is full of sexy and shaded silhouettes with a low key monotone visual style.

2. MODA FOLKLORICAFull of beautiful and intricate embroidery contrasted with opulent jewels and lacquered lace, this trend embodies the essence of the gypsy girl and the Romanov princess.

3. QUIET TIMEWith elegant silhouettes created by dramatically oversized apparel, this trend is influenced by nature and symbolizes an escape from everyday madness. Try wearing colours like pastel, cream, beige and white or go for vague floral prints.

4. ELECTRIC ECTASY Carefree and a little bit crazy, this trend contains an array of colours splashed together against bold cartoony prints. This is where dyed candy-coloured hair goes well with emphasized shapes and molded silhouettes maintained by materials such as neoprene and felt wool.
